Giving Day – April 24, 2019

Giving Day is Live!

In the 2017 inaugural year, we received 32 gifts benefiting The Mike Puritz Staff Assembly Career Enhancement Scholarship Program. In 2018, we beat that record with 39 gifts, which raised $2,355 (almost 5 awards) towards staff scholarships. It was an awesome show of support and we are excited to beat those numbers again this year!

You all play a crucial part in UCI’s Giving Day success. So here’s how:

Choose
Giving Day is fueled by the spirit of community and collaboration. With so many worthy causes – from programs that benefit staff to cancer research – your support is sure to make an impact. Make a donation of any amount to your area of interest. This year, Staff Assembly is participating by promoting two funds that benefit staff. Visit the Staff Assembly Giving Day web page for all the details.

Champion
Share your Anteater spirit with others and keep the excitement going all day long. Share what you love about UCI, and why you give on social media, and tag us using #UCIGIVINGDAY. It’s not about the size of the gift. Your gift combines with others to make a difference. Connect with us on our Facebook page as we join fellow staffers in creating a mountain out of an anthill today.

Celebrate
Stop by the Giving Day Pep Rally at the Flagpoles (next to Aldrich Hall and in front of the Rose Garden) on April 24th from 11:30am – 1:00pm and celebrate the day with your fellow Anteaters. Special guests, including Peter the Anteater himself will be stopping by. We’ll have free pizza (while supplies last), a selfie station and yard games!

Zot! Zot! Zot!
